Beyond Borders - Why English Is Essential in the AI-Powered Job World

The world is getting smaller, not in size, but in how people connect because of the internet and technology. It just makes it easy for people can now work together from different parts of the world without even meeting in person. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has a big part in this revolution. 

But one skill is still very important even in this upgrade, that's the ability to speak and understand English. Because, 'English is the language of the future, not because it's spoken by many, but because it connects humans to machines, and ideas to innovation.' 

At Codeasalai, we saw this change coming. That's why we created a special English Speaking Course. Let's get into this blog. 

The Growth of AI and How It Changes Jobs

Artificial Intelligence is already upgrading industries like healthcare, marketing, education, finance, and transport. A 2024 report from PwC said that AI could add about $15.7 trillion to the world's economy by the year 2030. Because of this, many companies are looking for people who understand AI and can work with it. 

But they don’t only need computer engineers. They also need people who can communicate ideas, work with international teams, and explain complex things in simple words. And what is the main language that connects all these people? It’s English.

AI tools, documents, user interfaces, and research are mostly in English. Virtual assistants like Alexa, Google Assistant, and ChatGPT are trained mainly in English to talk to people from different countries.

Why English Is More Than Just Speaking

You will think that learning English is only about speaking fluently. But that’s not the whole thing. In this digital economy, English is used in many ways, such as, 

• Working with global teams: Many AI projects involve people from different countries. English helps them talk and understand each other.
• Reading and writing documents: Most AI research papers and guides are written in English. Almost 95% of them are in English.
• Explaining data and results: Being able to share your ideas, reports, and results clearly in English is very important.
• Remote work and freelancing: Many freelancing platforms like Upwork and Freelancer show that about 70% of high-paying jobs require good English.

A 2024 LinkedIn report on the future of work said that communication skills in English are one of the top three soft skills companies look for in tech employees. This is why Codeasalai’s English Speaking Course is not like regular courses. It helps you learn the kind of English used in real jobs like writing emails, talking in meetings, giving presentations, and clearing job interviews.

From Madurai to Manhattan 

Let’s assume you are a software developer from Madurai. You are good at Python and have built a few AI projects. Now, you want to apply for a remote job with a company based in Germany.

Your technical skills are good, but the interview will be in English. You also need to give a short demo and write an email about your work. Now, imagine if you can speak, answer questions with confidence, and explain your work without feeling nervous. That’s what knowing English can do for you.

What the Data Says About English and Jobs

• The EF English Proficiency Index (2023) showed that countries with better English speakers have 30–35% higher chances of getting international jobs.
• A 2024 McKinsey study found that tech professionals who speak English well earn 18–22% more than those who don’t.
• On Indeed.com, over 60% of AI job postings in Asia require good English communication.
• A survey by the World Economic Forum said that knowing multiple languages, especially English, is one of the top 10 job skills needed by 2025.

AI Can’t Replace Human Conversation

Some people think that AI translation tools can solve the problem. But that’s not true. AI tools can help, but they cannot fully replace human communication. In real jobs, you need to build trust, give feedback, explain things, and lead teams. These tasks require natural and clear English speaking skills.

Interestingly, AI works better when you give it clear English instructions. So the better your English, the more effective your AI tools become.
